"Xi Xi, don't think that just because you're my biological sister, I have to be biased toward you. You can't bully Qingzhi as you please! Don't be too selfish!"
Hearing Kang Jichuan's berating, Qiao Xi's heart turned cold bit by bit. She widened her eyes in shock and sorrow. "This is clearly…"
"Shut up! Stop talking!"
Kang Jichuan interrupted her coldly and carried Kang Qingzhi upstairs. Before he left, he said, "Aunt Zhang, send Xi Xi back to her room and let her reflect on her mistakes!"
Qiao Xi stood on the spot and watched the two of them leave. The servant's disdainful voice sounded in her ears. "Second Miss, Sir asked you to reflect on yourself behind closed doors. Quickly return to your room. I advise you to stop before you go too far!"
At that time, although Qiao Xi was angry, she did not pursue the matter because of the last trace of kinship. After that, she wrote a few more perfume recipes, and they disappeared soon after. Then, she saw Kang Qingzhi acting in front of Kang Jichuan with her perfume recipes.
Qiao Xi knew that Kang Jichuan would not believe her, so she did not ask further. During that period of time, she came up with more than 20 perfume recipes, but they were all stolen by Kang Qingzhi.
The scene in the dream changed. Qiao Xi saw the servant, Aunt Zhang, quietly enter her room and steal the perfume recipes before handing them to Kang Qingzhi.
"Miss Qingzhi, she wrote a few more perfume recipes. Take a look."
Kang Qingzhi leaned against the recliner and smiled weakly. "It's useless for her to keep these perfume recipes. I'll take them to participate in the competition so that I can do these recipes justice."
The dream ended here. Qiao Xi suddenly opened her eyes, her heart thumping.
At this moment, she finally understood why she had suddenly recovered her memory. It was because the International Fragrance Competition had stimulated her and triggered her memories.
It turned out that Kang Qingzhi stole her perfume recipes!
She immediately took out her phone and sent a message. The other party quickly replied: [Kang Qingzhi is the champion of two consecutive competitions. However, because of her health, she didn't participate in the past two years.]
Qiao Xi had been a judge before, but she had never met Kang Qingzhi. It was probably because Kang Qingzhi only participated in the competition when she wasn't around. Kang Qingzhi did not know how to make perfumes, but she won two championships with Qiao Xi's perfume recipes. How laughable!
However, Qiao Xi was puzzled. In her dream, she had clearly discovered that Kang Qingzhi had stolen her recipes and even obtained evidence of it. Why didn't she expose her in public?
She closed her eyes and recalled the scene in her dream. Each of her perfume recipes was mixed with a spice with a special smell. The smell of the spices that were mixed like this was not perfect.
If she were still a judge in the International Fragrance Competition, she would definitely be able to tell that there was something wrong with Kang Qingzhi's perfume recipes. The other spices were clearly very harmonious when mixed together, but there were one or two spices that seemed to be an odd inclusion. Of course, other than her, the previous president of the Fragrance Association could also tell. Unfortunately, the president had passed away, and she no longer served as a judge. Hence, no one exposed the problem in the perfume recipes.
Kang Qingzhi won two consecutive championships with these perfume recipes.
Qiao Xi suddenly smiled and immediately stood up to go to Gu Zheng's study. "Ah Zheng, I've decided to participate in the International Perfume Competition!"
Gu Zheng raised an eyebrow and sized up her. "Mrs. Gu, you thought it through so quickly?"
Qiao Xi blinked. "That's right! I've thought it through. Coincidentally, I have some ready-made perfume recipes. I'm very confident in winning the championship!"
The rules of the competition were to select 200 perfume recipes from thousands of them. Then, there would be a one-on-one competition. After layers of screening, only ten people would be able to enter the finals.
Qiao Xi felt that this method was unscientific. After the previous president, Madam Leng, passed away, those people changed the original rules. However, since she was participating in the competition, no matter how dissatisfied she was, she had to follow the rules.
Qiao Xi took out a perfume recipe and placed it in front of Gu Zheng. "What do you think of this perfume recipe? It should be more than enough to participate in the competition, right?"
Gu Zheng lowered his eyes and glanced at her. The corners of his lips curled up. "Mrs. Gu, I know your secret very well, but I'm very curious about why you suddenly want to participate."
Qiao Xi revealed a meaningful smile. "How can I take revenge if I don't participate in the competition?!"
Even a thief could become the champion. Now that the real creator was here, it was time for the thief to abdicate!
Qiao Xi filled in the registration form and submitted her perfume recipe for the competition online. Then, she drove to the venue of the perfume competition and handed over the bottle of perfume she had made.
